This comic, biting, and tragic musical gives us a glimpse into the lost world of pre-World War II Warsaw. The vibrant, cosmopolitan city that had a cabaret scene rivaling Berlin and Paris was utterly destroyed in 1939 and is gone forever. In 1964 London, survivor Frederic Sercki is a recluse haunted by the past. Fellow cabaret artist and survivor Zozo Terné attempts to prod his memory about the cabaret Serce Chopina, or Chopin's Heart that he started just a few months before the Nazi and Soviet invasion of Poland. But Frederic, who hides a secret from his old friend Zozo, does not wish to delve into his memories. It is not until the ghost of the internationally famous cabaret chanteuse Hanka Ordonówna shows up, along with other long-dead figures from his past, that 1939 and 1964 come alive and commingle, creating the possibility of catharsis for Frederic.
